We're thinking of you, Jerry, and of Ruth, and the boys (who are no longer boys). We are so glad you got to make that final visit. Caroline and I went down to Virginia to visit my father on his 100th birthday and were glad we did when he died three months later. I'll always remember him telling me, "The last few years haven't been much fun." Sometimes it must be best to simply let go. As the songs says: "Sleep on, Beloved; sleep and take your rest."
    With all our love,
    Sandy and Caroline
